Member of:

I am a clinical Cardiologist and translational researcher with a focus in the area of electrophysiology, cardiogenetics and inherited arrhythmias. In Amsterdam University Medical Centers (location AMC), we were one of the first worldwide to start an outpatient cardiogenetic clinic. Over the years we have seen thousands of patients and families with inherited arrhythmia syndrome. They are at the basis of my Academic Research which is focused on inherited cardiac diseases which are associated with sudden cardiac death. Different aspects, including gene discovery, genotype-phenotype relationships and new treatment modalities have been and are being covered. Our cardiogenetic clinic in Amsterdam is one of the largest in Europe. Since 2017 I’m the coordinator of the European Reference Network GUARD-Heart (The ERN for rare cardiac diseases).
